- Are you ready, Mom?

Hello, Cyberfans!

Thanks for tuning into another episode of "Rock and Gato"!

With me, Inez, and my beloved trained kitty cat, Gatito!

Take it away, Gatito!

[upbeat keyboard music]

Aw, perfect, Gatito! [Gatito purring]

Bye-bye, everyone!

See you next time! [Gatito meowing]

- See, George?

It's easy!

[keyboard playing off-key]

Harmony will be here soon,

and I promised the boss a big show to welcome her!

[keyboard playing off-key]

- Buzz, Delete!

Get in here now!

Start painting.

I want this bedroom to look perfect for my little angel!

- Which color?

- All of them!

I'm not taking any chances.

Oh, she's here!

Positions, everyone!

- Hit it, George!

[keyboard playing off-key]

[door whirring]

- Harmony!

My little niecey-wiecey!

Welcome back!

- How you doing, Unky?

Hi, Buzz, hi, Delete!

- [Both] Welcome back, Harmony!

- Come, my dear.

I have a surprise for you!

- Ooh!

I love surprises!

Rainbows!

My favorite!

You remembered!

- How could I forget?

I have another surprise for you.

- You do?

- Your Unky Hacker is gonna show you

the most beautiful thing in all of Cyberspace!

Tah-dah!

Isn't it beautiful?

It's me!

- It is?

[Harmony gasping]

- That's the most amazing thing I've ever seen!

- Why, thank you, dear.

- [Harmony] Look!

- Shoo!

Get off!

[Harmony giggling]

- Isn't it adorable?

I name you "Sparkle Toes."

[Sparkle Toes chittering]

Can we keep her?

Can we?

- Oh, I'd love nothing more, but, uh...

We'd have no place for her!

- [gasps] She can stay with George!

- Uh, Harmony?

This creature, like most wild animals,

belongs here in the wild,

where it can do all its uh...

Creature things.

- [All] Please?

[sad music]

[Hacker gasping]

Anything for you, my sweet darling.

- Yay!

- Sparkle Toes, meet George!

George, meet Sparkle Toes!

Your new bud- [Sparkle Toes munching]

Don't worry, we got plenty more!

- [Harmony] Yay!

They're sharing!

[Harmony giggling]

[keyboard playing off-key]

[Sparkle Toes chittering]

[keyboard crashing]

[dishes clattering]

[Buzz screaming] [water splashing]

[Harmony giggling] [Buzz growling]

[Sparkle Toes shivering]

[George thudding]

[Hacker snoring]

[Sparkle Toes chittering]

[Hacker screaming]

- You!

The Hacker is not to be awakened in the middle of the night!

Is that clear?

Now shoo!

Go on, go!

No!

[door whirring] [Sparkle Toes chittering]

Sleep outside.

[sad music] [Sparkle Toes chittering]

Here.

Have a sweet treat.

[Sparkle Toes munching] [Sparkle Toes chittering]

Ugh, if you insist.

[Sparkle Toes munching]

Excellent.

Keep going!

Good girl!

[door whirring]

Ah, another wonderful day in the Northern Frontier!

- Unky Hacker!

I can't find Sparkle Toes anywhere!

[Hacker gulping]

- Oh no!

She must be here somewhere!

- You'll help me find her, won't you?

[sad music]

- Of course, my little Harmony.

Buzz, Delete!

- Looking now, Boss!

- Should be easy!

She leaves sparkles everywhere she goes!

[tense music]

- [Buzz] Hey, everybody!

I think I know what happened!

- Sparkle Toes?

- No, just sparkles.

[dramatic music]

- She's gone.

What are we gonna do?

[Harmony crying loudly]

- Buzz, Delete!

How could you let this happen?

- Um, don't cry, Harmony!

I have an idea! [Harmony crying loudly]

- In this episode of "Rock and Gato,"

Gatito's prepared an incredible dance number!

Um, Gatito?

Where are you?

Okay, let's see.

Cats shed a lot, so maybe...

[gasps] Yes!

Footprints, fur, the carpet is bent in this direction!

He definitely went this way!

[footsteps tapping]

[Gatito meowing]

[upbeat dance music]

[Buzz laughing]

- That cat really cracks me up!

- Inez knows a lot about animals, so I'm thinking...

- She can help us find Sparkle Toes!

Yes!

Great idea, Dede!

Call her!

Please?

- Ah, here you are!

- Good news, Unky!

Delete is gonna ask Inez and her friends

to come help us find Sparkle Toes!

- Oh.

Goodie.

[portal warbling]

- Harmony! - So good to see you!

- Hi!

Thanks for coming.

- We got here as soon as we could.

- Always happy to help a friend in need.

- Or an animal!

What does Sparkle Toes look like?

- I took this after dinner last night.

- Aww!

Don't worry, we'll find her!

- What do we need to know to find Sparkle Toes?

- Well, what kind of things does Sparkle Toes like?

If we know that, we can look in places

that have those things.

- And if we know what Sparkle Toes doesn't like,

we can skip places that have those things.

- Sparkle Toes and George must have slept here!

- Look at those blankets!

Sparkle Toes turned them into a tunnel.

- That tells us Sparkle Toes

likes to make tunnels and burrow.

- Cool.

We can put that on the list.

"Likes burrowing."

- Yeah!

It's the cutest.

She loves to cuddle and get warm and cozy.

- If she's always trying to get warm,

maybe she dislikes being cold.

- Maybe.

Let's add that to the chart.

"Dislikes cold."

- [Delete] George loves carrots,

but Sparkle Toes ate them all before George got any!

- [Jackie] Sparkle Toes likes carrots.

- [Delete] Sparkle toes didn't like

George's loud piano music,

even though he's been practicing really hard.

- Maybe Sparkle Toes just dislikes loud sounds.

- [Buzz] Sparkle Toes helped me clean up the kitchen.

Sort of.

- [Harmony] She likes to splash in water!

- [Jackie] Sparkle Toes likes water.

- Okay, what do we know?

- Well, we know Sparkle Toes likes to burrow,

likes carrots, and likes water.

- [Matt] And she doesn't like the cold or loud sounds.

- Here's a map for the Northern Frontier.

We don't have to search North Point

'cause it's way too cold for Sparkle Toes.

- But she likes to burrow,

so Picadilly Prairie is the perfect place to look!

- Oh!

What about Echo Valley?

Should we look there?

- Echo Valley?

If sounds echo in the valley,

it must be a noisy place.

And remember, Sparkle Toes dislikes loud noises.

- So is that a no?

- That's a no, Harmony.

- Oh. [laughs]

Mystic Meadow is the best place for carrots!

I get 'em fresh for George all the time.

- [Digit] Mystic Meadow is a go!

- The more we figure out about Sparkle Toes,

the easier it'll be to find her.

Harmony, is there anything else you can tell us about her?

- Well, she's the cutest little ball of fuzz,

and love, and sparkles ever!

- Sparkles!

I forgot!

She leaves them everywhere she goes!

[Inez humming thoughtfully]

- Let's see what the sparkles tell us.

- [Computer] These are sparkles left by an amazing creature

called a Floover, found only on the cybersite, Flooveria.

Its scientific name is Cavia Floovis.

- That looks just like Sparkle Toes!

Except I put a purple bow around her neck.

- Good to know, Harmony.

It'll take too long for all of us to go everywhere together.

So, better if we split up.

- Good idea, Inez!

Didge, you come with Jackie and me.

- And I'll go with Harmony, Buzz, and Delete.

- Let's do it!

- Bye-bye, Unky!

We're going to find Sparkle Toes!

- Wait!

- I love her so, so, so much!

I don't know what I'd do if she's lost.

- Buzz, Delete, do whatever you need to do

to find [sobs] Sparkle Toes!

[Hacker sobbing]

- I think I'd better stay with the boss.

[door whirring]

[birds chirping]

[animals chittering]

[floovers chittering]

[Hacker sobbing]

Uh, you okay, boss?

- Oh, go away!

No, come back!

Go away!

[Hacker groaning]

Buzz, I'm the worst!

- Well, yeah, boss, but you're the best-worst.

- No!

I made my favorite niece sad!

[Hacker sobbing]

- Oh, it not your fault Sparkle Toes escaped.

Could've happened to anyone.

- Well, that's not entirely true.

[footsteps tapping] [Digit whirring]

- Delete was right.

Look at all these cyber raccoon nests.

The perfect place for Sparkle Toes to burrow.

- But where are all the cyber raccoons?

- Who can sleep in a bed this messy?

No wonder they left!

- No cyber raccoons and no Sparkle Toes.

- But there are sparkles, so she was definitely here.

Maybe she was the one to mess up all the leaves.

- At least we know we're on her trail.

- Wait!

There are two trails of sparkles.

Sparkle Toes has purple sparkles, but these are red.

- Maybe there are two floovers.

Better call Inez.

- Inez, we're at Piccadilly Prairie

and we just missed Sparkle Toes.

But we think there might be two of them now!

- What?

Uh, Two?

- Uh-oh.

I didn't see this before.

Did anyone feed Sparkle Toes sugar, or treats of any kind?

- Uh-uh.

- Me either!

Why?

- Because if floovers eat any sugar,

they can double three times in a day!

So if Sparkle Toes doubles at breakfast,

now we have two floovers.

- What?

Two floovers?

Isn't that great?

- Not exactly.

By lunch, both of those floovers will double.

Two floovers plus two floovers is four floovers.

By dinner time-

- [Jackie] All four floovers will double again!

and we'll have four floovers plus four floovers,

which is...

- [Digit] One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight floovers!

- Then the next morning, if they double again,

there will be...

Eight floovers plus eight floovers is floovers!

- [Jackie] That's a lot of destruction

for the animals who normally live here!

- Yikes!

[bees buzzing]

[floovers munching]

[tense music]

- Boss!

You kicked Sparkle Toes out?

- I didn't "kick her out!"

I just inspired her to leave.

But now Harmony is sad.

What do I do, Buzz?

I want Harmony to be happy!

What if she finds out I'm the one

that let Sparkle Toes loose?

[Hacker sobbing]

[Inez humming thoughtfully]

- According to our chart, Sparkle Toes likes carrots.

So maybe she's around here somewhere.

- Sparkle Toes!

Are you here?

Sparkle Toes!

- Looks like she was.

These carrot plants are all chewed up!

- Sparkle Toes must've been hungry.

- You hear that?

- I don't hear anything.

- Me either.

- There are usually bees around here,

but I don't hear 'em buzzing around.

That's really strange.

- Bees?

- Bees pollinate carrot plants.

If there aren't enough plants for the bees to pollinate,

the bees have to go somewhere else.

Without the bees to pollinate them,

the carrots can't make seeds.

Then the carrots won't grow next season.

- But George needs carrots!

We gotta find those floovers and get them home!

They don't belong out here!

- Look!

Four colors of sparkles!

That must mean there are four floovers now!

[flies buzzing] [frogs croaking]

[ground rumbling] [floovers chittering]

[water splashing]

[frogs croaking] [floovers chittering]

- Yikes!

They should change the name of this place

from Muddy Marsh to Messy Marsh!

- No kidding!

No frogs, no turtles,

no insects that you would usually find in a marsh.

- Sparkle Toes was here, all right.

This is what the plants are supposed to look like.

- Well, we know she likes to splash in the water.

She probably scared everyone away.

- Not just Sparkle toes.

There were four floovers,

now there's one, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight!

They've doubled again!

- I hate to say this, Harmony,

but these floovers are an invasive species!

- An invasive species?

- Yeah!

You know, animals that do damage

when they're in a new place that isn't their home.

- I'm thinking floovers do a lot better

in their own home where there's plenty of space

for them to dig tunnels, and eat lots of plants,

and splash around in the water.

- And by being here, they make it difficult

for the animals that already live here.

- [Matt] The cyber raccoons that live in the prairie.

- [Jackie] And the bees that help the carrots

grow in the meadow.

- [Digit] And the frogs and turtles

that should be swimming in the marsh.

- But the floovers don't mean to be mean!

- They're not being mean,

they're just being, well, floovers.

Maybe they'd be happier back where they came from.

- But I just really love...

Sparkle Toes!

[Harmony giggling] [Sparkle Toes chittering]

Isn't she just the cutest?

- Aww!

She really is.

But if they keep doubling three times a day,

by tomorrow, there'll be !

Then , then , where are they all gonna live?

And how much more damage will they do?

But I really, really, really wanna keep her!

[Inez sighing sadly]

- I understand how hard it is to give up a pet.

But what if she's not really happy here?

Let me show you something.

This is Chester.

He's a nutria. [Chester squeaking]

I took him home when I found him in the rain.

I took really good care of him,

but he just wasn't happy inside.

He didn't have the things he needed,

so he started to make big messes.

It was so hard to take him back where he belonged,

but it was the right thing to do.

- [Harmony] And now you have Gatito.

- Exactly!

An animal that doesn't belong in the wild!

Just think about it, okay?

[sad music]

- Boss, they're back!

They've got Sparkle Toes!

And a bunch more!

- Did you say more floovers?

[floovers twinkling]

You're back.

With one, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight

adorable creatures!

Hooray!

- There'll be by the morning.

- You really want me to keep floovers here?

That would make you happy?

- It really would, Unky, but...

[Sparkle Toes munching]

[sighs] We need to take them back home.

Floovers don't belong here.

[Hacker cheering loudly]

[Hacker coughing]

- Harmony, I'm very proud of you.

- Me, too!

[ship whirring]

[ship thudding]

[floovers chittering]

[Harmony gasping]

[floovers chittering]

- Sparkle Toes?

Where'd you go?

- She probably found her family!

This is where she belongs.

- I know.

I just [sniffles] wanted to say goodbye.

[floovers chittering]

Sparkle Toes! [Sparkle Toes chittering]

- Let's give them a minute.

You're doing the right thing.

- I'm gonna miss you, Sparkle Toes.

I loved playing with you.

We were gonna be best friends,

but I know you'll be happier here than you would be with me.

You need to be with your family.

Goodbye, Sparkle Toes.

I'll never forget you.

And I'll never wash this shirt again

so I'll always remember you.

[Sparkle Toes smooching]

[heartfelt music]

- And don't forget The Hacker.

[Hacker sobbing]

- It's okay, Unky Hacker.

We're doing the right thing.

And maybe someday, we can come back and visit her.

- You're just so good!

- Why don't you go make us some cocoa?

- Okay.

[Hacker sniffling]

- Thanks for helping me find Sparkle Toes.

- And thank you for helping us catch

the rest of the floovers.

They all look super happy to be back home.

- Yeah, they really do.

[triumphant music]

- Stay right where you are!

It's "Cyberchase For Real!"

[upbeat music]

- That feels so much better.

I can't believe I got poison ivy again!

- I'm so sorry.

And I know it's hard to resist the urge,

but please don't scratch.

- Can you help me take my mind off my itchy arms?

- I know just the thing! - Great!

- I have a few friends who are helping

to make the poison Ivy problem go away.

Do you wanna see? - Yeah!

[upbeat music]

[goats bleating]

Aww!

- Meet Skittles,

Buckles,

Chalupa,

Mallomar,

Ms. Bo Peep,

Brooklyn,

Cheech,

Romeo,

and Carmella.

- They're so adorable!

But I don't see the connection to my itchy hand.

- Goats love to eat poison ivy.

- They don't get itchy?

- Luckily, poison Ivy doesn't affect goats

in the same way that it affects people.

- I'm glad to hear that.

- You'll also be glad to hear

that in addition to poison ivy,

goats love to eat other plants that are invasive species.

- Invasive species?

- Invasive species are plants or animals that grow quickly

and harm other plants trying to grow.

- So that's one, two, three, four,

five, six, seven, eight, nine goats that are helping

to get rid of poison ivy and invasive species?

That's amazing!

- What's really amazing is that one goat

can eat up to a hundred pounds of plants in only four days.

They eat almost constantly.

- Wow, and you have nine goats!

So that's ,

,

,

,

,

,

,

,

pounds of plants in four days!

Awesome!

- It's better than using chemicals

that can harm the animals and plants.

We wanna keep healthy.

- And it would be pretty hard for people to remove plants

on this hill and avoid getting poison ivy.

- Right!

Goats are really good at climbing.

I'm very grateful to the goats for their help.

- Me too.

Are you sure they don't get itchy?

I'd be happy to share my lotion with them.

[all laughing]

[upbeat funky music]
